EPOS H6Pro Gaming Headset Detailed Review

[@samuelkirk6074]

you care about the cost. This keeps me watching your videos. Thank you for your hard work. Please be careful on your dirt bike you are not 25 years old!

[@hybridlionable]

I ended up with the open back after watching your numerous reviews on it and a bunch of others. I love them, they are the best headset I’ve owned - which isn’t saying much since I used to have a ton of turtle beach in the 360 days, then a hyperx cloudx and then Astro a10.

[@amr7504]

can u plz give me your opinion on the mic picking sound from the headset and does it have an impact on your gaming experience.

[@1stFraVe]

I'd really like to know as well, whether it picks up the sound from the headphones

[@Max44611]

@@1stFraVeI have h6pro open back, and haven’t experienced mic picking up sound coming from headset.

[@thermalXTX]

[@Paul4679]

Thank you for showing the differences (and similarities) in detail, much appreciated. I went with the open version as I use them in a quiet environment - wider soundstage, cooler ears, and at £70 they were a stinkin' steal.

[@brianperez7214]

Ive been fairly new to the whole pc gaming thing (got mine 6 months ago) so ive made a lot of decisions from your reviews so I very much appreciate the work you do, and the detachable mic is big

[@hp1799]

Is these headsets are you able to lol your teammates voice in the background while you in the game on the PS five like the Astro a 40s?

[@johnstevens1]

Finally a review that really shows the differences between these two... Thanks Techne

[@michaelthompson9798]

I personally have an open and closed back headphone / headset for gaming being the Corsair HS70SE and Drop x Senheisser Jubilee X58s which offers a variety gaming sounds depending on th3 games I play. Admittedly, I use my Jubilee x58 more often then the HS70SE.

[@Niels_f2704]

Yeah same it's just that open back gives you a more spacious feeling instead of the sound feeling trapped inside your headphones/headset. But for gaming imaging is still more important than sound stage.

[@michaelkajer6713]

Wow, those definitely demolished my expectations! Those are some really nice headphones. I might just buy a pair for myself sometime...

[@baileymoto]

just picked these up today to replace both wired MS stereo headset and steelseries nova 3 wired headset. I’m a console gamer, sitting at a desk with a monitor….hands down, this headset blows both out of the water in all aspects. I agree with the price concern. That said, picked them up from bestbuy on sale for $136. At this price, it’s a no brainer. Such an amazing headset. 👌

[@thatguyinformer27]

Got the same feeling right there, I think EPOS makes high quality gaming headsets, but with a relatively high price range. Anyways GLHF on CoD Vanguard my man!

[@vandal_ross]

I've always loved how you mute the mic on Sennheiser/EPOS headsets... Upgraded to the H6Pro (open) from my 5-year-old Game one headset and I'm very happy indeed... top-quality headset!

[@cosmicpaladin369]

Thank you for the detailed review. I just ordered a pair of the closed one for myself and I will be taking them out for a spin on Friday :)

[@louieduarte7436]

Yo how were they my dude???

[@cosmicpaladin369]

​@@louieduarte7436most def the best headset I have used. Amazing sound, feels well built, the magnetic mic still surprises me when taking off and on. At first I felt them a little heavy since I used smaller headsets before but it gets to a point that you forget you have them on. Chose the closed ones over the open ones due to noise outside my window during the day which is when I mostly play. One of the few buys that doesn't leave you wondering if you could've made a better decision. Now it's up to you to choose between the open or closed one. Hope I answered your question

[@Blakester1417]

Been hoping you’d review these, thanks Techne! Really like them personally, and the giveaway being available to us Canadians is deadly, thanks! Still not sure for open or closed… want to make the switch to open but so hard to know til you try em.

[@Paxman_245]

Nice to see another give away for Canada lol great vid as always

[@Fetchdafish]

I have to wonder if you were playing on console, or not using a dac/amp. The open backed version is less sensitive and thus quieter than the closed back, so you might need a preamp.This could also be an excellent example of how "immersion" doesn't mean the same thing for everyone. Most people would say open backed is more immersive because it's more accurate and the sound stage is wider giving you a more 3d sense of where sounds are coming from. It's also easier to make open backed headphones sound more natural without exaggerated mid, lows or highs because the sound isn't bouncing around in a confined space. But if your environment has any amount of noise the isolation of closed back can be much more immersive despite sounding objectively worse all else being equal.

[@goshmain982]

I just watch you for your personality because you make me stinkin cozy.

[@stang4258]

I really wish you had swapped the pads and retest the open back to see if that improved the sound but still giving you the soundstage over the closed back

[@bigskydude8068]

That’s what I did with my GSP 500’s..and they felt/sounded much better..

[@shannoncurry2037]

Bought me and my sister these and we love them ❤

[@8Ryanaugust]

Great review. I picked up the open and closed to compare. The open back was a clear winner for me while playing Starfield on Series X, so I returned the closed. The open is plenty loud enough for me on Xbox, and the lows, mids, and highs are all amazing…it feels like I’m in the environment. Even though I had a closed back before these, the H6 closed back sound felt too claustrophobic, like people yelling at me in a chamber, but I can understand why people would want them for a FPS.

[@Masetheguitarman]

How is the bass response on the open compared to the closed? The only thing I’m worried about in getting the open is that there might be a lack of bass

[@8Ryanaugust]

Firstly, I’m not super experienced in headphones. This is my first decent set after using Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 for last couple of years. I will say that the bass response with the H6 opens is more than I expected after hearing reviews. Hypothetically, if I had the option of turning the bass or volume up more, I wouldn’t, because any more bass would be uncomfortable for me. That being said, of course the closed does give you another level of up front and close bass. The open set for me is like buying a concert ticket in the middle section of the main floor in a theater where the sound is balanced, and the closed is like buying a ticket in the front row or in front of the speaker. It’s just about preference. I will add that another reason I got the open is that I have three kids and the open back allows me to hear them should they need something at night or anything lol. With a closed back, I found myself putting one ear only half on so I could hear my surroundings.

[@MrE1976]

⁠​⁠@@MasetheguitarmanI just got a pair of these in open, coming from an (super bassy) Xbox Wireless Headset I basically had the same thoughts beforehand, would the bass feel flat in comparison? Honestly, it’s better in every way. It’s way more balanced but still has plenty of punch behind it & I can pick out sounds on this headset that I couldn’t before.

[@AnearPlayz]

I just realised I won a giveaway back in october, but my gmail notifs were off. hopefully I'll keep track next time, the videos are what's most important anyways and I'm glad to be able to watch your videos for free!

I guess that's some unlucky timing! Keep up the good work as always!👍

[@srmd22]

Pretty entertaining watching this, especially a year out, with so many new products out, and so many more reviews having come out since, including yours. I think what you were trying to say about open vs. closed back is the open back are considered to have a wider soundstage, and sometimes more pronounced mids (so you can hear footsteps easier), which appeals to many gamers, lol. I feel like you have really learned a lot in the last year, your reviews just get better and better (I have learned a bunch too, from you and other similar reviewers). I recently picked up the Audeze Maxwell, and your review was one of the ones that helped me with that decision. Even though I have that box checked, I am now sorta hooked on the gaming and audiophile headset hobby, probably will be for a little while. So, while I don't need any more headphones or headsets... I will surely end up with some. Btw, your biggest gripe with these, the price, well they are now down to $120, so if you don't need the latest and greatest, that issue is solved. I am seriously considering picking one up. The Game Zero closed back is now down to a ridiculously low $50 - makes you almost hard not to buy it. Part of the whole youtube-amazon-consumer phenomenon - it's sort of a weird consumer-entertainment dopamine loop that seems to be a thing that has developed and mushroomed. So many video reviews to watch about so many different products - it's better than Netflix. Anyway, I hope you can keep these videos coming, they are really entertaining and informative, you have a great, down-to-earth friendly no-bs style, very refreshing.

[@phr3ui559]

How good are the Game Zero's? I'm looking for a closed back alternative to the pc38x.

Wireless is so annoying just because of the charging. I had some Logitech g935 and the forgetting to charge and then having to charge it got so annoying that i just ended up keeping the cable always attached to them. I upgraded the the h6pro and i don't think i would ever get wireless headphones again unless they had a similar dock like the astro a50. Like if epos made h6hybrid with a charging dock then those have capability of being the only good wireless gaming headset

I am looking at gaming headset specifically for Sim racing (iRacing, ACC, R3E). I think EPOS H6 Pro Open-back will fit me pretty well because the audio is usually pretty loud so i think the open-back will give the sound that breathy airiness that is needed.

[@crate718]

I own the H6 pro closed back and I own the seenheiser hd560s open back and for my person taste the 560s blows away the H6 pro out of the water in every aspect. I do love the H6 pro I still have them

[@petera1556]

Damn i own the hd560s myself and was thinking about getting closed back headset due to background noises or even just an upgrade potentially. Another thing is convenience of the mic. Tried any other headsets that work better than the hd560s in terms of imaging?

[@crate718]

@@petera1556 I heard hyper x orbit is good

[@VeeHausen]

I just picked up the closed version, on the box it states "Racing Green" but is blue like the ones in the video, still it looks really nice! Can confirm the sound is stellar! This is from someone that has a lot of different headphones! I got the GSX 300 DAC/AMP for this as well and works amazingly! I needed a closed-back and the isolation is fantastic and sounds more immediate and responsive!

[@Mog780]

Do you still have them with the gsx 300? I've been thinking about getting them as my personal combo, but have been getting mixed signals from online reviews, how's the DAC in your opinion? Does it improve the mic at all?

[@vahidghiasvand9087]

I got the bundle A few days ago. With the DAC. Let me say, im not imopressed. Not at all. I play alot og WZ. When i start shooting, the sound level of gun shots is decresing to ablut 30-40%. So for me, i cant hear what Direction the shots are coming from. Came from a blackshark v2 pro, and that was great. Dont know if my pair of H6Pro is broken 😐 the dac is for. Me worthless. Should cost around 10-15 bucks.

[@hedgehog1965uk]

It sounds like you got the "wrong" colour headset in the box. The "Racing Green " ones are in fact dark green (usually called "British racing green", as it's the colour that was used on old-school British race cars), with subtle gold accents. The "Sebring Black" is the one that is actually dark blue. Both look great IMO. I am about to buy a pair of these (closed) H6PRO and can't decide which colour I like best. The green is very distinctive and cool looking. You can now get them in the UK for £80 ($97 US), which seems like amazing value.

[@xbizzle]

Appreciate your reviews. Always check your channel before I buy a new headset 👍

[@drittz5470]

I’ve purchased almost every major gaming headphone in the last couple of months. Basically because this Brother here puts so much into these reviews. The Audeze Penrose/Mobius are my favorite hands down. I just bought these H6’s and here how this is going down. I’ll still use my Steelseries, Fnatic, JBL’s, Turtle Beach, and Razors. However my main headset is Audeze’s and then these H6 Pro’s. I’m extremely impressed with these and for a headset that can plug into both an Xbox and PS5 controller and sound this amazing🤙. I do use An Astro A-40 Dac with my Xbox and the SteelSeries Dac with my Ps5 so the audio is even better. However I’ve also plugged these just into the controllers and they sound amazing. You won’t regret these. The mic sounds fantastic and these are tuned perfectly for Call of Duty and other games. I wish they were $150.00 also. However they are worth the asking price. These are a sweet pair of gaming headphones🤙. Try them if your on the fence.

[@georgschmidt2143]

Guys, i tested the open back model for two days now. It sounds far from almost linear and the tuning is way too "bath tub" in my opinion. There is a huge hole in the mids ranging from 500 Hz to 2,5 kHz and had to be boosted in a curve up to 5 db via EQ. This should not be a problem right? However, the highs/ treble are way too artificial and not clean at all. There is something pretty nasty in there (@ 10 kHz) which u can NOT get rid off even with an equalizer. The bass too strong as well but can be tuned OK-wise. Music from which i know has excellent sound sounds OK at best but ONLY WITH an EQ! But you alnost need a different EQ setting for each new album or sound video. The build quality is great, it's comfortable even with glasses. The Mic is OK, not a full body at all but with a very smooth mid range. Cable noise is OK but could be better. For Sound Enthusiasts THIS IS NOT FOR YOU! Rather try some great pair of headphones (studio quality or similar) where you can remove the cable, so you can attach a boompro Mic (VModa) therefore using it as a headset. At least this is what i am going for. I already returned the HyperX Cloud II and III and now this. I hope this was helpful for you, cheers!

Have u tried on ps5. Whats ya thought. So far. Out to date. Whats the best headphone below 300$ wired and wireless. And with mic. Hows h6 closed. Still worth till this day?

[@linusdanielsson5448]

Hey! I ordered the H6pro closed back yesterday. Is it necessary to buy an amp aswell if you want even better sound? I was thinking about getting the GSX 300 to go with them but I’m honestly not sure, what are your thoughts?

[@JG129]

I’m thinking about picking them up ? Was wondering if you liked them ?

[@linusdanielsson5448]

@@JG129 Yeah I love them! I got the gsx 1000 with them aswell, but definitely not a must. They’re a great pair of headphones!

The Master Chief Green ones are on sale at Best Buy for $99. After seeing this, Im def gonna go pick them up.

Hey hoss, which would recommend more the steelseries arctis nova 7X or these?

[@cloudfps]

the design is so much better than the gsp and the white version looks so beatiful

[@AdmiralAndy]

i tested both, the open and the closed (on Pc with my Soundcard Soundblaster Z). Both are great! I m a gamer and i decided to stay with the open ones! Sound ist still very great and somehow more clear for me. i like that more. The closed one is also great, but its getting warm under the ear pads. The Open ones are more airy and you can still here door bell ringing ect, the ears stay cooler ect.. A little price heavy, but i like the design, sound, mic :D

Which version is better for pin pointing sounds and hearing footsteps on fps games in your opinion?

[@AdmiralAndy]

​@@2swole To pick out sounds like steps, both of them are great. For me, the open version is better. I feel it a little more clearly.

[@MertLDN]

Have you tried the pc38x? How do these compare to it in terms of imaging and accuracy for footsteps

[@AdmiralAndy]

@@MertLDN never tried the pc38x, sorry

[@davehetesi7537]

@@MertLDN I purchased these and the pc38x. The pc38x were so uncomfortable and the build quality felt really cheap. I had them for a couple of days and when I put on the h6 pro, I couldn't go back. The h6s are so much more comfortable.

Just order closed one green H6Pro with 69 €, blackweek sale. I was actually looking for open one, but they seems to be sold, even price is still 179 €

I have one question I ordered those headsets I have the Astra 40 headsets are you able to turn down your teammates voice to hear the game sound for your teammate is loud from these headsets ?

[@ashenjoseph4114]

Do the closed backs sound good plugged directly into PC? Without using any external DAC/AMPs?
